Trilogy (Night Ward), Book the First, Chapter 1: "They knew nothing outside the valley they grew up in, occasionally a salesman would come to town with stories of the big cities and their super powered beings saving the day or causing havoc." Semi-colon, not a comma.

 

Fireball (Night Ward), "Hermit Spells". All the clues in this story lack a trailing full stop, as does the debrief message "Great job, Character. We can begin the process of moving the spells into these items immediately".

 

Fireball (Night Ward), "Take down Dispel Magic": compass clue refers to "Dispell Magic".

 

Fireball (Twignapping): "Oh man oh man! Those low down Black Knights. I knew we couldn't trust them! One of our Embodiments, spells that live inside magic objects has been taken by them. I need you to get him back!" - comma after "objects".

Feel free to post all the typos you find in game here. Please try to avoid duplicate reports. No, this is not serious enough to get you Bug Hunter.

“If they can their hands on one” is missing a ‘get’. This is Allison King’s mission in Brickstown.

Fireball (Night Ward), "Whoa", "Talk to Cee Baller"; Cee Baller repeatedly refers to another plane of "existance". "Existence". "I can discern what plane of existance it occurred on, if you which to take a portal to that plane we can learn exactly what happened, and if it can happen again." - "wish", not "which", and semicolon after "occurred on".

 

Fireball, "True Colors"; much dialogue with the Zygote is missing full stops. Debrief says "I can guarentee that" - "guarantee".

 

Silver Mantis SF, end of mission 1: "You defeated both sides leaders and captured the tattoo artists!" - "sides' leaders".

 

"Shut down Freaks and stop Sky Raiders", briefing: "The Freaks have set up shop in an un-used office building" - "unused". "Black Scorpions orders are to make sure that doesn't happen, and I want to see those orders carried out by shutting down everything and leaving it in ruin" - "Black Scorpion's".

Slot Machine, Miss Fortune's Wheel, first mish intro:

'The wheels click into place, and the machine began to blare noise from it's speakers'

 

Also, in the description of the slot machine:

'Maybe it's the fact that no one else ever goes near the machine, or how the glowing orange light of it's screen sometimes turns blood-red,'

and

'and as it's lights flash and it's bells ring'

 

Wow, I think I hit the jackpot on this one.

Mission: Sacrifices Must Be Made Part II: Finders Keepers

 

Text: 2nd para, 2nd sent: "Luckily your provided..."

Correction: "your" should be "you" or "you've"

As a general observation, if I were fixing these, I would find it much easier to do so with even a relatively small verbatim text quote from the game than a large image. I'm not particularly singling out the previous poster, just using it as an example: even the string "up seizing investigations" as text would be more useful than that entire image.

Found a couple of typos in the Souvenir 'Lost and Found'

 

The first sentence currently reads:

"Timothy Raymond was once a normal man, as normal as anyone can be in the Rouge Isles"

That should be 'Rogue Isles'.

 

In the second paragraph of the same souvenir, second sentence:

"He makes your on anger rise just by standing next to him."

Should be: own.

Hard Luck, Breaking the Streak, Take Down Luckless mish intro text:

 

'The moron thought he could hide from Giza security by seeking shelter from the Carnival.'

should be

'The moron thought he could hide from Giza security by seeking shelter with the Carnival.'

or maybe

'The moron thought he could hide from Giza security by seeking shelter from us with the Carnival.'

 

He's being protected by the Carnies while hiding from Johnny Sonata's forces.

Senator Aquila mish, Julia Pria dialogue:

'Each morning, the sounds of tradesmen and townsfolk hawking their wares and haggling each other could be heard across the city.'

should be

'Each morning, the sounds of tradesmen and townsfolk hawking their wares and haggling with each other could be heard across the city.'

 

The version of haggle that means to negotiate or bargain is not a transitive verb.

Souvenir text: Coral Bonanza

 

Paragraph 3: "But she was curious about"

Sentence ends prematurely - suggest it should be: "But she was curious about them."

Also Parapgraph 3: "She sent you to the famed vodoun master,"

Vodoun is a proper noun; this should be capitalised.

Kelly Uqua background info text:

 

'Crey moved her to their offices in the Rogue Isles, where she's been making friends with it's less scrupulous metahuman community.'

 

should be

 

'Crey moved her to their offices in the Rogue Isles, where she's been making friends with its less scrupulous metahuman community.'

Dream Doctor, "Find David Hazen's Missing Journal": "[NPC] Ancient of Frost: You attacked many of us, Scirocco. But you can not defeat us all. We will thrive on your pain before you're taken by Mot." "can not" should be "cannot".

 

Dream Doctor, "Stop Mot from Devouring the World": "[Caption] People of the world, today we make the choice of hope, and that is something Mot can NOT take away, that Mot CAN NOT DEFEAT!" Same "can not" / "cannot" confusion (twice).

 

Michael Binocolo, final debrief: "The Midnighters say that they cannot consider the Luddites offer at the moment, given the blow that was struck to them. Perhaps in the future, they may work together with us." Apostrophe after "Luddites". The blow was struck "against" them. Comma after "Perhaps".

 

X-Ray Spectator Badge: The soldiers of Point X-Ray like to call themselves the "X-Raiders." They are an elite squad specializing in sniper rifles and counter-insurgency and though they find themselves in a completely unfamiliar environment they still employ their military discipline and peerless training to the effort. They don't generally welcome super-powered individuals but seeing as you've come as far, you've clearly proven yourself against the "hostiles" and so they offer you a grudging respect. Though they are not ready to give you the title of fellow X-Raider... yet.

 

"to the effort" is gibberish; not even sure what was meant here. "you've come as far", maybe "so far" or "this far". "Though they ..." is a hanging sentence fragment. Maybe a comma after "respect"?

Not sure if its been mentioned in this thread yet, but the Steadfast Protection Res/+Def says in the description it adds 15.9% resistance. 15.9% would be if Steadfast was a level 50 IO. However it is at max Level 30, so the actual description should say something like 13% resistance.

Hardcase, Pied Piper Arc, Draw Wailers to Paragon City, map entry pop-up:

 

'The foul sewers below Paragon City is a perfect place to hide the sonic transmitter.'

 

should be

 

'The foul sewers below Paragon City are a perfect place to hide the sonic transmitter.'

 

since 'sewers' is plural.

Hardcase, Chaos Affair arc, Rescue victims from Wailers:

 

When each victim is rescued s/he says, 'Thanks! I thought I was done for?'

 

I can't see any reason there should be a question mark at the end instead of a period or exclamation point.
